I don’t see how he’s not. It may take more time than it should, but I’d lean heavy that he gets in.
That's pretty crazy - and while he had the slight angle on him, he still ran him down.
I know is probably older Herschel but Walker was supposed to be quite fast, right?
He was track level fast - but yeah that would have to be towards the end for him - impressive nevertheless.
Vinateri is a lock for the HOF. The guy he kicked to on the opening kick-off in SB 41, Devin Hester, who returned it for a TD, is a more interesting case for HOF. Vinateti made a good positional kick as directed. He got his jersey grass-stained trying to make the tackle on Hester.JohnnyU said:
Ghost was good but he doesnt have near the longevity of performance than Vinateri has or other HoF kickers like Morten Anderson have yet. Ghost would need to play 9 more seasons to match AV. Its possible I suppose but still a long way to go.
Only four kickers in the hall and they include names of legend. Blanda doubled as a QB and kicker; Groza played offensive tackle. Stenerud was a pioneer in kicker specialization. In fact, that might explain why he is the hall in the first place. Morten Andersen, with a 25 year career, is the only other pure place kicker in the hall. Of course, punter Ray Guy is also enshrined. If Gostkowski played 9 more years, I guess his career would be comparable to Andersen although I'm not sure what the criteria would be as so few have made the cut.
